The goals should describe in broad terms what you hope to achieve with violence prevention efforts. Organise brainstorming activities for the School Health Team to decide on overall goals for your violence prevention efforts.

To help form your goals, try first to envision your school and community as violence-free.(34)

Examples of overall goals may be:

 

• To provide a safe learning environment for students and a safe workplace for staff
• To minimise violence and bullying within the school
• To build violence prevention skills for the future
• To involve and empower youth to become leaders in violence prevention
